Abstract (en)

[origin: EP2179960A1] The system has a filling device for filling a container with a liquid i.e. beverage. A transport device (2) has a rotary support (12) and gripper elements (14) for gripping filled container. Another transport device (4) has multiple transport elements for transporting the container. The transport devices are arranged such that the container is transferred from one of the transport devices to another transport device in predetermined transfer regions (A, B). The gripper elements are entirely moved with respect to the rotary support. An independent claim is also included for a method for handling a container.
